November 2, 2013 by Leave a Comment

“The Unhappy Hour” host Brian Engelman once again welcomes NBA scout Zak Baris to talk about the Cleveland Cavs opening night win against the Brooklyn Nets.

Plus, Brian & Zak talk about:
– How surprising was it to see Andrew Bynum on opening night?
– What have we learned about the rookies across the NBA after a few games & was the play of Michael Carter Williams a fluke, or the birth of a superstar?
– Should Browns fans be worried to see Jacksonville Jaguars WR Justin Blackmon suspended indefinitely for substance abuse issues? There was trade interest in star receiver Josh Gordon, but the Browns kept him. Gordon has a year suspension hanging over his head if he is busted for another substance abuse issue.
